As recent performance affirms, Pensacola native Josh Sitton believes he's got a few good seasons left in his NFL career.

The Miami Dolphins agreed.

The Dolphins and Sitton, who became an unrestricted free agent in February when released by the Chicago Bears after two seasons of a three-year, $21.5 million contract, reportedly agreed to a two-year, $18 million contract on Thursday.

Sitton, who made the Pro Bowl this year for the fourth time, visited the Miami Dolphins and met with team executives Wednesday. The Dolphins were among several teams expressing interest in him.

Sitton, 31, who is entering his 11th NFL season and was an NFL All-Pro in 2014, has a connection with the Dolphins. The team's new offensive line coach is Jeremiah Washburn, who was Sitton's coach the past two seasons with the Bears.

Washburn returned to Miami, where he had worked, after the Dolphins fired Chris Forester, who was caught on a video snorting cocaine in his office last season.

The Dolphins' interest in Sitton, a Catholic High and University of Central Florida graduate, is for him to continue playing left guard. The feeling is Sitton could mentor the Dolphins' left tackle Laremy Tunsil, a former first-round draft pick.

Sitton played eight seasons with the Green Bay Packers, including a Super Bowl championship team as a starter in 2010.
